Faith on Trial broadcast resumes LIVE Tuesday

We’re back,
broadcasting LIVE starting Tuesday morning at 9.On tap for our first live show is Brad Dacus of the Pacific Justice Institute on problems with the transgendered bathroom rules.Several states and localities have ordinances
that allow students to use the school rest room or shower facilities of the
gender they “feel” they are.This is
causing some problems, as you can well imagine, and in one case high school
girls are being harassed by a boy in their own bathrooms.Unfortunately for the girls, their parents’
complaint was dismissed by the local school which said the boy’s rights as a transgender
trump their daughters’ privacy rights.

Following
Brad we will have local attorney Frank
Harty and Becket Fund Attorney Eric
Baxter about a local case.A Mennonite
family in Grimes, Iowa is being investigated by the Iowa Civil Rights
Commission because they refuse to allow their property to be used for a
same-sex wedding ceremony. The family is
not taking this laying down, they have filed a suit against the Civil Rights
Commission challenging its right to infringe on their deeply held religious
beliefs.

Tune in Tuesday
at 9 a.m. or listen to the re-broadcast at 9 p.m. on Iowa Catholic Radio, 1150
AM; 88.5 & 94.5 FM and streaming live on IowaCatholicRadio.com.Times listed are Central.
